As added texture expands the form:

What are the two basic wrapping techniques for rotating strands around a perm tool?

The overlap (croquignole) technique produces which result?

Positioning texture in one or more specific areas or zones of the head, or along only a certain portion of the hair strand is called:

You can apply the design principles of repetition, alternation, progression, and contrast:

Zonal perms are also called:

What can a zonal perm do?

Adding texture to the fringe can do what?

When is base perming used?

What is end perming?

Name the 5 perm patterns.

What does the bricklay pattern help avoid?

A rectangle pattern is also known as a:

In a contour pattern, the rods lay:

Perm Techniques and Definitions

The spiral technique is best utilized on medium to long hair.
Added texture creates the illusion of shorter hair lengths.
Two primary wrapping techniques for perming are spiral and overlap.

Wrapping Techniques and Effects

The overlap (croquignole) technique produces undulating waves and curls.
Texture placement refers to positioning texture in specific areas of the head or along portions of the hair strand.

Design Principles in Perming

Design principles of repetition, alternation, progression, and contrast can be applied along the hair strand and within texture zones.
Perm patterns, or wrapping patterns, affect the final curl appearance and assist in organizing perm services.

Types and Effects of Perms

Zonal perms are also known as partial perms and are used to emphasize or support specific areas, as well as create bold statements.
Adding texture to the fringe boosts volume and height in hairstyles.

Purpose of Base and End Perming

Base perming is used for creating lift and volume, especially for new hair growth to match previously permed texture.
End perming enhances texture away from the base, resulting in contrasting textures.

Perm Patterns Overview

Common perm patterns include rectangle, contour, bricklay, spiral bricklay, and zonal.
The bricklay pattern is beneficial for avoiding splits in the curling process.
A rectangle pattern is referred to as a 6-block pattern.
In a contour pattern, rods are positioned diagonally forward, transitioning to horizontal as they progress.
